I want to say a thrift store I used to frequent had one for the longest time, but that just may be my mind playing games with me.

Thanks for sharing!

Tue, 01 Aug 2017 02:46:18 +0000http://neovideohunter.wordpress.com/?p=7641#comment-2529I have a PV-8000 born on 4/30/1985. It’s not Hi-Fi or HD, but it is a Quad 4. The one I have now is the second one I’ve owned. The first one I found in a dumpster behind a junk shop in the pre-eBay era. It came with the camera and worked great. Then I lent it to a sketchy dude in Chicago. I never saw him or the 8000 again. The one I have now came from a Goodwill, cost $10, and didn’t come with the camera or the case. Still, I love it. It’ll play anything that doesn’t have mold on it; it’s theoretically portable; and it’s got that mysterious Pay TV dial too…

Unfortunately, I don’t recall a JCPenney or beef jerky place – no off the top of my head, anyway.

Good things can be had at the new Goodwill location, but you have to be there at just the right time. I was in there this past Thursday, and absolutely nothing caught my eye. BUT, I popped in again last night, and had some pretty good scores, so you just never know!

That said, I certainly miss the old spot; I remember walking in the front doors once, looking to my left, and through the window seeing a box on the ground with a Commodore=64 computer and related items in it. Naturally it went home with me. Also, because I’m such a VHS guy, the big wall of tapes they had was fantastic; of course, that’s not to say they’d still have it nowadays if they were still there, but looking back, I wish I would have taken better advantage of that selection.

I most certainly do remember the JC Comics & Cards commercials! They were great, and often aired during The Son of Ghoul Show. I still pop into JC’s every once in awhile; I’m overdue for a visit, in fact.

I didn’t write about it here, but nearly a year ago I picked up newer a JVC S-VHS that, from the testing I did, appears to work perfectly. I still need to play around with it some more; I wouldn’t mind making it my “daily driver” if I could confirm it’s in tip-top shape internally.
